"Ordered $90 of food and No banchan! No tasty little sides. The food was great. I could understand if I bought one dish, but I spent $90 and all I got wes some kimchi. It was god kimchi with cabbage and turnips. I'd probably eat there in person, but I won't ever door dash again."

"This jerk chicken is so delicious! It tasted like authentic Jamaican cuisine...not just some jerk sauce slapped on some chicken. Made me feel like I was in Jamaica! This was our first time ordering from here. We will definitely be ordering again!"
"Oxtails here were pretty good. I would order again. The jerk chicken was Smokey but they forgot my jerk sauce. It was definitely good but more chicken for the price. Stewed pork wasn't the best. Mac and cheese reminded me of Popeyes which isn't bad. Cabbage was delicious and spicy. Rice and peas by the time I got it was very glued together, not the best. I paid extra for oxtail gravy on the rice and it was almost nothing there. Overall the veggies, Mac, jerk, and oxtails were pretty good and I'd order again."

"Love this place Really good Baleada freshly made !"
"ordered for the first time since I usually visit the restaurant. Was left a little disappointed, I ordered Pupusa de Pollo con Queso / Chicken and Cheese Pupusa and Pupusa Revuelta / Mixed Pupusa, which in the restaurant are pretty good but the ones I received barley had any chicken or Chicarron en them it was more cheese with the flavor of chicken and chicarron. So I could of just ordered a cheese pupusa instead, since they charge so much more for a pollo pupusa. Not worth it to be honest."
